Giving Animate/Health scripts to Custom Character

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello there!

I’ve been trying to create custom characters that are only applied to a specific person depending on their UserId.

To do this, I have used this method:

However, what wasn’t specified is how to apply a custom character’s animations/health script onto the character. I’ve tried just adding it inside the model. However, that failed to work.

If anyone could provide insight on adding animation/health scripts while using this method of custom character loading, that would be great. Thank you so much in advance!

If its a normal character, you can do it by the Humanoid. It looks like even tho is a custom character, it will have a Humanoid, So doing it like this should work.

#3

Could you please elaborate on what you mean by “do it by the humanoid?”

Thank you for your response!

The Humanoid is something inside of all character. I think it may be one inside of your custom character.

go check inside of your character, it will look like this:

Yes, the Humanoid is already inside the character, but it still won’t animate.

#6

are you doing :LoadAnimation() ?

#7

Yes I am.

My apologies, I just realized I made the idiotic mistake of keeping the Animate script as a localscript instead of a serverscript. That was the error.

I’m so sorry if I took up your time!
